I will have to study the witness's answer afterwards because it contained a lot of detail.

I now return to the testing and warnings. When Dr. David Gibbons, Dr. Sam Coulter-Smith and others made their warnings and indicated their fears on the consequences of outsourcing, it was not mere speculation. They had evidence, namely, that the positive rate coming from US laboratories, because of a different methodology or system, was 1.2 rather than 1.8 in Ireland. Were they correct at that time? Was that true then? Is that evidence correct?
